Summary: 5 Stars
I was so thrilled to locate these Mimi the Sardine lunch bags this year. I had such a struggle finding a safer alternative to the lunch boxes. So many in recent years have been coming up with positive tests for lead, PVC and other nasties.
I ordered two, both in the pink mouse print, for my children. And one of my closest friends ordered one in the blue flora print for her daughter. I'd be hard-pressed to choose a favorite, although the price is definitely better on the mouse one. As an aside, I found the company - enfanta - who is currently selling these older print bags at a discount to be very competant. When my order was delayed, they refunded my shipping as a courtesy. Note that you can also order directly from their website for combined shipping.
The bags are quite large, more so than they look in the image, and thus the print is larger too, and the mice are not a small print, but a big bold print. The bags look like a big purse when my kids throw them over their shoulders. They are two and four years old. The kids were immediately thrilled to receive them and promptly began playing 'school' and packing up the wooden food from their kitchen to take as school lunch. The zipper closure is easy, even for my two year old, to open and close.
The inner compartment is generous and could easily accomodate a standard lunch box thermos or Sigg-type water bottle, alongside ample containers or baggies of goodies, napkins, etc. The material is pretty heavy duty, soft, yet slightly rigid. It's made from organic cotton with an acrylic coating to make it more waterproof in case of leaks. The printed material is manufactured in Europe and adheres to Oeko-Tex 100 standards which test for over 100 harmful and suspect chemicals including lead, cadmium, formaldehyde and many many others. The bags themselves are sewn in California. Hands down, these facts are what please me most!
Bottom line, these are bags you can feel good about storing your child's edibles in. They're aethetically pleasing, they've got great kid appeal, and my initial impression is that they would be sturdy and durable and last through some kid abuse.
I think these bags are a great investment. I can see getting many years of use from them and using them for versatile tasks. I'm so grateful that fantastic companies like this exist and allow consumers a safer, more ecological alternative for the everyday products we bring into our homes and lives!
